What height lift would be safe with an X with 24s package and an automatic transmisssion? Suggestions for a lower cost spring or budget boost? I am running metric tires that are 33.7 inches tall on the 17" rims, 3.73 stock gears. I expect to run in the mud and moderate southern Appalachian trails. I don't want to increase the drive shaft angle enough to cause trouble with it, I know the automatic is longer than a manual right?
Since this is my first post, a little about me:
3rd Jeep, first was a CJ5, second was a TJ on 32's and Superlift budget boost.
Inherited my JK from my daughter after she decided she didn't like the car payment anymore.
2008 JK X, automatic transmission, 24s package, 17 inch factory rims with 285/75-17 tires.
Wife's is a 2008 Liberty with a broke Skyslider.![Mad](https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.png)

OME if you can find a good used one. There are a few here that are cheaper. One in LA unless it was sold. I put one on my KJ and am going to be putting one on my JK in 2 weeks
